Endurance exercise
The exercise-training program will be consisted of 10 minutes warming up, 30 minutes of treadmill walking, and 10 min cooling down three times per week. Warming up: It will be in the form of stretching of muscle groups for 10 minutes (3-5 stretch for the key muscle group (iliopsoas muscle, gluteus maximus ,quadriceps ,tibialis anterior , calf muscle, hold for 20-30 seconds), before the actual aerobic training session. Actual session: Participants will receive aerobic exercises in the form of Moderate aerobic exercise training in the form of 30 min of treadmill walking and corresponding to a target heart rate of 65% to 75% of HR max (Maximum HR = 220 - Age ) to be gradually achieved and maintained throughout the training program. Cooling down: It will be in the form of a treadmill walking at very slow speed for ten minutes.
Kinesiotaping
The participants will be asked to assume standing position then to flex back to reach its maximum point. * Two bands, 1 on each side of the lumbar spine, will be applied vertically from the lower posterior iliac crest region to the upper twelfth rib region, with inhibition technique. * The remaining 2 bands will be attached horizontally, with space correction technique. * All 4 bands will be placed to allow for 50% longitudinal stretching. The stretching directions for the vertical and horizontal applications were bottom-up and sideways, respectively.
